“You need rhythm of the mind,
for grasping music in its essence,
5. 7, 8, 6. 11, 7. 12, 8. 13, 9. 14, 10. 17, 18, 15. 25,
16. 26, 17. 29, 30
6. 10, 11, 9. 14, 15, 16. 26, 27
5. 9, 6. 10, 10. 16, 17, 17. 28, 29
5. 6, 7, 10. 18, 19, 17. 30, 31
4. 4, 5, 11. 20, 21, 18. 32, 33

it provides an idea and inspiration of heavenly sciences,
4. 5, 5. 6, 10. 19, 11. 20, 17. 31, 18. 32

and what the mind sensuously feels of it,
11. 21, 12.-14. 22, 18. 33, 19. 34
is the embodiment of mental cognition.
12.-14. 22, 23, 19.-21. 34, 35

Although the mental forces live on it,
as you live on air,
it is still something different
to comprehend it with the mind;
5. 7, 8, 6. 11, 7. 12, 8. 13, 9. 14, 10. 17, 18, 15. 25,
16. 26, 17. 29, 30
11. 21, 12.-14. 22, 18. 33, 19. 34
the more, however,
the soul draws its sensuous food from it,
5. 9, 6. 10, 11, 7. 12, 8. 13, 9. 14, 15, 10. 16, 15. 25,
16.
26, 27, 17. 28
the riper the mind gets
12.-14. 22, 23, 19.-21. 34, 35
for a happy consent with the soul. –
But few achieve this.”

Beethoven
